I’m not about to provide you with masturbation material.

Women. Queer people. Non-white people. Hell, even white straight cis evangelical Christian rich men who die from being sick.
There will be so much death.
It will be unending.

We may yet manage as a country, but the millions that die from this election won’t get to see it.

Absolutely. It is a very short JRPG that wastes no time and has no filler. I finish it about monthly.
The only discernible flaw is that one dialog box is missing a closing quotation mark.

I am now reading every goddamn one of these you write. If only the other screenshot posters would put forth your respect and effort, we could have an honest gaming journal going.

I like the effort you put into these posts. Much better than just a simple screenshot. You’ve sold me on this game.

I wish I could use both hands, remember faces, and walk without a cane.
Of course, there is always someone who says they wish they could have both hands, be able to remember anything, and walk at all.
And there are people who have no limb who wish they could have one, and would long for any mobility at all.
I’m grateful for what I got, but in a true human sense, I want more.

I don’t have to use your word, I can use whatever words I want. It’s why there are options.
You can use whatever words you want too, and you don’t have to use the words I provide.
You don’t have to use the words anyone provides, and no one has to use the words you provide.
This is how language develops, how styles and dialect and vocabulary develops.
And you can stay up and fill my inbox, I don’t care anymore, but I’m going to sleep. To bed. Conk out. Hitting the hay. Getting some rest. Zonk.
- Comment on Anon cuddles with his first gf 3 weeks ago:
It is not.
To censor a language is to censor thought itself.
And if slurs and insults become censored and incapable of thought, what else is on the table, up for removal? Words about being queer, words about body rights, words about lived experiences, words that aren’t fucking corpo-washed.
I have made my point in an unerring straight goddamn line.
Languages should not shrink for any goddamn reason.
Now go to bed, it’s 5:37 in the morning.
- Comment on Anon cuddles with his first gf 3 weeks ago:
Every single one of those words should exist. Even the slurs. That way, we know who’s trouble.
Motherfucker, I do not believe I made myself clear, so allow me to retort:
Languages should not ever shrink at all. Ever. Shrinking languages is some nazi-ass, 1984-ass fascist shit.
- Comment on Anon cuddles with his first gf 3 weeks ago:
Let’s make things clear: you don’t need a euphemism.
I want more euphemisms. I want this language to have some goddamn options and I want the number of words in this language to never fucking decrease for any reason.
- Comment on Anon cuddles with his first gf 3 weeks ago:
Bad take.
You’re erasing the existence of Sappho, who was so gay for girls that the island she came from—the place heretofore unknown for anything—is now known for just how goddamn queer she was, and everyone who experiences sapphic love (hey, another word that got coined off of one poet’s fantastically omnipresent woman lust).
Lesbians. Sapphic lesbians. From Lesbos. That Sappho started. Why?
Girls pretty.

The only thing I still buy from Nintendo is hanafuda. They got some pretty good quality, playable stuff. I guess their shogi equipment isn’t bad either.
Video games though? Nope, not anymore.

- Comment on 66 hours in, i made a factory that makes 25 motors per minute. [Satisfactory] 5 weeks ago:
And here I am just making my motors by hand like a chump. You know, maybe it’s time I get off my ass and build something cool like this. Iron and coal processing and smelting on the first level, ingot splitting to wire on the second, pipe making on the third, have a vertical line that’ll start pumping out rotors from processing, then a bank of assemblers at the top floor to churn out motors and to line them back down.

I mean, I’ve said some mean things about this game, but I’ve said them with my whole chest, with my fucking name attached to them. None of this anonymity with downvotes. At least I stand by my opinion, that this game isn’t a good idea to have been created.

And yet we keep getting downvotes. Come on dev, self-reflection!

While I’m going on and on, three million people aren’t gonna get to play this, cause they died during the pandemic.
No one wants nostalgia for that.

Also the fact that every single comment here so far is panning your game should give you pause.
I suppose what you should reflect on is this: most folks have a favorite video game. What type of people are you courting in the hopes that those people say your game is their favorite? I don’t actually even see a core audience for this. A few people will buy it as a curiosity, but I don’t expect people would log more than an hour or two.

This sounds poorly conceived. It’s not interesting, just tedious and it opens wounds that haven’t even begun to heal.
You spent four years on this? No self-reflection about your audience, or what they would want to play?
Look, the sink-cost fallacy is a thing. Don’t over-invest in this.

“We’re getting skewered again? Doesn’t she, y’know, ever change this up?”
“‘Fraid not. Stabby implements of various sorts are the focus of this love story. Anyway. Skewered. You.”

We walked in, sat down, Obie came in with the twenty seven eight-by-ten colour glossy pictures with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one, sat down. Man came in said, “All rise.” We all stood up, and Obie stood up with the twenty seven eight-by-ten colour glossy pictures, and the judge walked in sat down with a seeing eye dog, and he sat down, we sat down. Obie looked at the seeing eye dog, and then at the twenty seven eight-by-ten colour glossy pictures with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one, and looked at the seeing eye dog. And then at twenty seven eight-by-ten colour glossy pictures with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one and began to cry, 'cause Obie came to the realization that it was a typical case of American blind justice, and there wasn’t nothing he could do about it, and the judge wasn’t going to look at the twenty seven eight-by-ten colour glossy pictures with the circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one explaining what each one was to be used as evidence against us.

As someone who adores the thirteen trilogy so much that I play through all three games several times a year and model my wardrobe and aesthetic off of it, I can respect there would be people that absolutely hate the game, but it hurts a bit inside.

- Comment on Anon misses something 2 months ago:
One time a girl invited me to sleep with her, and I looked at her filthy pillowcases and bullshitted my way into sleeping on her couch, after countering her insistence with the extreme option of “if you’re not gonna let me sleep on your couch, I’m going home.”
I thought she literally meant actual sleep, and what she wanted was sex.
I slept on her couch and she sobbed softly through a closed door.
I found out about a decade later, from a mutual friend, that girl had the biggest hots for me and was gonna stop at nothing to fuck me.
Well, she was stopped by my obliviousness.
I was ace and sex-repulsed even back then, so even if I had figured her out, I prolly would have had a small panic attack and tried to go home.
